Alex Woo has partnered with Disney to create pendants for Bears where 20 percent of each sale benefits the National Parks Foundation (to further protect and conserve endangered or threatened wildlife and wild places as well as enhance field research across more than 2.9 million acres of National Park Service land). All of Alex Woo’s jewelry is manufactured in NYC from sustainable resources.

All Alex Woo pieces tell a story and this pendant isn’t any different. This symbolic pendant captures the essence of American wildlife and significance of the bond between mother and child. Inspired by Disneynature’s latest true-life adventure, Bears, the design features the film’s stars, the mother bear, Sky, and her twin cubs, Amber and Scout, standing against the backdrop of three snow-capped mountain peaks – each representing goals that the National Park Foundation hopes to achieve: wildlife protection, habitat restoration, and conservation research.

This eco-friendly design is available in Sterling Silver or solid 14kt Gold, and is made in NYC from sustainable resources. Alex Woo Inc. will donate 20% of the proceeds from sales of this design to benefit the National Park Foundation in its dedication to further conservation, preservation, and enjoyment of America’s national parks.

The pendant hangs on a 18” chain. When worn, the pendant will hang approximately 17” because the chain loops through the piece. – See more at: Alex Woo’s Website

Check out these 2 ADORABLE clips from Disney Nature’s Bears movie that is opening this Friday, April 18th.
In an epic story of breathtaking scale, Disneynature’s new True Life Adventure “Bears” showcases a year in the life of a bear family as two impressionable young cubs are taught life’s most important lessons. Set against a majestic Alaskan backdrop teeming with life, their journey begins as winter comes to an end and the bears emerge from hibernation to face the bitter cold. The world outside is exciting—but risky—as the cubs’ playful descent down the mountain carries with it a looming threat of avalanches. As the season changes from spring to summer, the brown bears must work hard to find food—ultimately feasting at a plentiful salmon run—while staying safe from rival male bears and predators, including an ever-present wolf. “Bears” captures the fast-moving action and suspense of life in one of the planet’s last great wildernesses—Alaska! Directed by Alastair Fothergill (“Earth,” “African Cats” and “Chimpanzee”) and Keith Scholey (“African Cats”), and narrated by John C. Reilly, “Bears” arrives in theatersApril 18, 2014, to celebrate Earth Day.

Disneynature’s BEARS releases in theaters on April 18, 2014! I had the opportunity to see a short preview of this film and it is awesome! Bears is the fifth theatrical release for Disneynature, the first new Disney-branded film label from The Walt Disney Studios in more than 60 years. The label was launched in April 2008 to bring the world’s top nature filmmakers together to capture a variety of wildlife subjects and stories. The first four theatrical releases under the Disneynature label—“Earth,” “Oceans,” “African Cats” and “Chimpanzee”—are among the top five highest grossing feature-length nature films of all time. Walt Disney was a pioneer in wildlife documentary filmmaking, producing 13 True Life Adventure motion pictures between 1948 and 1960, including “Seal Island” (1948), “Beaver Valley” (1950), “The Living Desert” (1953) and “Jungle Cat” (1958). The films earned eight Academy Awards®.

Disney’s commitment to conservation is a key pillar of the label and Disneynature films empower the audience to help make a difference. Through donations tied to opening-week attendance for all four films, Disneynature, through the Disney Worldwide Conservation Fund, has planted three million trees in Brazil’s Atlantic Forest, established 40,000 acres of marine protected area in The Bahamas, protected 65,000 acres of savanna in Kenya, protected nearly 130,000 acres of wild chimpanzee habitat, educated 60,000 school children about chimpanzee conservation and cared for chimpanzees.

‪At D23, Walt Disney Studios’ chairman Alan Horn announced that for every moviegoer who sees BEARS opening week, Disneynature will make a contribution to the National Park Foundation to protect wildlife and wild places across the National Park system.
